Grover Washington - Feels So Good
1975

Not only is this a great album to chill and listen to, it is one of Grover Washington’s most sampled albums. In fact, I believe every song has been sampled on this album.

The title track “Feels So Good” was sampled by Gangstarr’s very own Guru in “Slicker than Most.”

The track “Moonstreams” was sampled by DMX in his track “Slippin.”

“Knucklehead” is constantly sampled over and over again. Just listen to it and the list of songs will build in your head.

And finally last but certainly not least, Hydra. Who has not sampled this track? We’ve got A Tribe Called Quest who sampled the drums for their track “Check the Rhyme.” The Artifacts also did this on “Wrong Side of the Tracks.” Big Daddy Kane used it in “Daddy’s Home,” and Biggie used it in the album version of “One More Chance.”

Biggie - Microphone Murderer (unreleased)

Author: Sonar  //  Category: Just Blogging, Music

With all the hype going on about the new Biggie movie I went through my collection and found an unreleased Biggie track. From my understanding this track was one of them that helped Biggie get signed. It’s a real tight track. Nothing better than listening to BIG flowin over The Emotions - “Blind Alley.” Just thought I’d give all you fans something you may not heard before. Let me know what you think. Check the track below.
